Abstract
In this paper, a MultiStructure computation technique based on the Method of Moments (MSMoM) is presented. The technique permits the simultaneous analysis of different structures, such as printed antennas, with only one electromagnetic (EM) simulation. Its performance in terms of number of operations for the analysis of several structures is evaluated. The complexity of the new technique is considerably reduced by comparison to an equivalent direct MoM implementation leading to important time savings.

Résumé
Dans cet article, une technique de calcul MultiStructure basée sur la Méthode des Moments est présentée. Cette technique permet l'analyse simultanée de plusieurs structures, comme par exemple les antennes imprimées, avec une seule simulation électromagnétique. Ses performances en terme de nombre d'opérations pour l'analyse de plusieurs structures sont évaluées. Il en ressort que la nouvelle technique est beaucoup moins gourmande en nombre d'opérations que la MoM classique permettant ainsi de réduire le temps le calcul.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.

If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
